Hello From New York Comic Con

As you can see, it’s a totally normal place with totally normal stuff around.
Today for me was a panel and a signing, both of which went well. I’m taking a break in my hotel room before I go off to do crimes, by which I mean probably get something to eat. CRIMINALLY.
It’s a weird but mostly delightful life.

That pic is what I envisioned Hera from Starter Villain to look like.
Fortunately being in a hotel room limits the range of Burrito crimes you can commit. Right?
(Nervously) Right?
Unfortunately, being in New York gives him more choices for burrito crimes.
I was at your panel, you were very funny! I wanted to say hi and get books signed, but I was part of the panel right after yours. I’m rereading the Old Man’s War series right now because my 14-year-old daughter has gotten into military sci-fi and so I reread each book after she finishes them (she’s up to Zoe’s Tale). Just as good as I remembered! Looking forward to Starter Villain.

May The Schwarma Be With You!
OK, who hacked off that kitsune?
If that’s the coyote I want to see the roadrunner;-)
Pity you can’t get decent deep dish pizza in that tow.
I’m in the Netherlands on business, and on the bus from the an Amsterdam train station to my lodgings, I was seatmates with someone attending an Amsterdam Comic-con, which is also occurring this weekend. They hope to attend the NYC one someday.
(We started conversing because they were dressed as a wizard, so obviously they were a kindred spirit…)
